Steering thermal systems encompass technologies and mechanisms specifically engineered to regulate and manage the temperature of steering components within vehicles. These systems are crucial for ensuring optimal and reliable operation of steering mechanisms across diverse temperature conditions, thereby enhancing the overall driving experience and extending the lifespan of steering components.
Key components within the steering thermal systems market include the air filter, condenser, compressor, water pump, motor, heat exchanger, heater control unit, thermoelectric generator, electric compressor, and other related elements. The air filter plays a critical role by eliminating contaminants such as dust, dirt, and debris from the air before they enter the system, ensuring clean airflow. Various advanced technologies are employed in steering thermal systems, including active transmission warm-up, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), engine thermal mass reduction, and reduced HVAC system loading. These technologies are applied across different vehicle types, including passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), and heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs). They collectively contribute to optimizing thermal management of steering components, thereby improving vehicle performance and efficiency.

Key trends expected in the forecast period include continuous technological innovations, expanding adoption of power steering systems, rising prominence of electric vehicles, increasing popularity of autonomous mobility solutions, and advancements in overall mobility solutions. These trends collectively indicate a dynamic evolution within the steering thermal systems market, aimed at enhancing vehicle performance, efficiency, and user comfort in the automotive industry.
The increasing demand for luxury vehicles is expected to drive growth in the steering thermal systems market. Luxury vehicles are characterized by their high comfort levels, advanced technology, and premium materials. This demand is fueled by affluent consumer preferences, exclusivity in production, and strong brand reliability and craftsmanship. Steering thermal systems play a crucial role in maintaining optimal temperatures for steering components, preventing overheating and enhancing performance and reliability. This is essential for both high-performance and commercial vehicles. For example, Porsche AG reported a significant increase in car deliveries in early 2023, reflecting robust growth across major regions such as Europe, North America, and China. Consequently, the rising demand for luxury vehicles is a key factor propelling the steering thermal systems market.
Leading companies in the steering thermal systems market are increasingly focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as proprietary thermal management systems, to gain a competitive advantage. A proprietary thermal management system is designed and implemented by companies to regulate temperatures across various components within specific applications or devices. For instance, ZF Group recently introduced its proprietary thermal management system for electric vehicles (EVs) in June 2023. This system has the potential to significantly extend EV range during winter conditions. It integrates advanced technologies such as an optimized electric drivetrain with components such as power electronics, motors, and reduction gearboxes based on 800-volt silicon carbide. Automakers have flexibility in integrating this thermal management system into their vehicles according to their specific needs and designs.
In April 2023, Lear Corporation, a US-based automotive technology company, acquired I.G. Bauerhin (IGB) for $150.44 million. This acquisition enriches Lear's portfolio in thermal comfort systems by integrating efficient heating, ventilation, and active cooling, alongside lumbar support and massage features, while upholding high standards in seating craftsmanship. I.G. Bauerhin (IGB), headquartered in Germany, specializes in manufacturing automotive steering wheel heaters.
